Thank you for your time and kind consideration!

Asked by Vipul Kabra | Aug. 09, 2023 08:56
Hi, I am flying into Hanoi on 8th Sep 2023 morning at 7:50 am and I was wondering if this gives us enough time to make the 12:00 check in for the cruise. We are interested in the 3 day 2 night option. Could you please confirm this is available by the pick-up you provide or is there another option we would have? Regards, Vipul Kabra
Answered by Cindy | Aug. 09, 2023 08:58
Dear Vipul Kabra, Thank you for your question and I am very glad to assist you with your trip. Yes, as it is only about 2,5 hours drive from Hanoi airport to Mon Cheri cruise, you would still have enough time to check in for the cruise at 12.00pm. However, the shuttle bus only picks up and drops off in Hanoi Old Quarter. Thus, you will need a private car to pick you up from Hanoi airport to go directly to the cruise port. I can arrange a private car for you with rate US$110/ one way for 2 persons. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Cindy (Ms.)

Asked by Debashree Bose | Jul. 11, 2023 09:04
Hi greetings! I will be taking a 2D1N trip on 18/19 Nov. I have the following question: The VISA approval letter that will be provided, will this help for VISA on arrival? is there anything else that will be required? After this, we will require only the stamping fees and not any other fees right? THANKS
Answered by Jolie | Jul. 11, 2023 09:06
Dear Debashree Bose, Thank you for your question and I am very glad to assist you with your trip. Yes, the approval letter is to obtain Visa on arrival when you enter Vietnam. You will need to bring the letter with your passport and US$ 25/person in cash for the stamping fee and no extra fee needed. However, as per our guests' experience, you will have to queue up, the process might take up to 1 hour. Hence if possible, I propose you consider e-visa, which has the same cost but is more convenient. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

Asked by K Tan | Apr. 03, 2023 01:52
Hi, will we be disembarking to visit any fishing villages?
Answered by Halongbaytours Team | Apr. 03, 2023 02:07
Dear K Tan, Thank you for your email and question. Your trip on Mon Cheri Cruise will not include a fishing village. However, if you book a 2-night trip, there will be a trip to a local village on Cat Ba island. This is a small village nestled in the dense jungle and mountains. You can cycle or take an electric car on rustic paths, watch the tranquil scenery, visit an ancient house, and learn more about daily life here. If you still prefer a floating fishing village, you can consider Ambassador, Paradise Elegance, Paradise Sails, Essence Grand, Swan, or Dragon Legend cruise. I hope this helps. If you need further information, do not hesitate to contact us. Regards, Halongbaytours Team

Dear Gili Amir, Thank you for your question. My name is Bailey from Halong Bay Tours department and I am very glad to assist you with your trip. About your question, may I reconfirm if you would like to know about the shuttle bus transfer from Hanoi to the Mon Cheri cruise, am I right? If yes, please no worries as we do offer our clients this kind of service. Our bus will do pick up and drop off clients right at their hotel within Hanoi Old Quarter thus please try to book your hotel within this area. Thanks for your kind notice! By the way, may I know your trip date, group size and if you prefer to spend 1 night or 2 nights onboard thus I could check availability and get back to you with more details. Thank you! Should you have any questions, please let me know. Best regards, Bailey (Ms)
Asked by Sue | Dec. 07, 2020 11:33
Hello, I was just wondering if Lan Ha Bay was as scenic as Bai Tu Bay and Halong Bay. how does it differ?
Answered by Mary | Dec. 07, 2020 11:45
Dear Sue, Thank you for your question. Lan Ha Bay actually has the same scenic beauty as Halong Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay. Halong bay is well-known and understandably more crowded than Lan Ha and Bai Tu Long. But if you are seeking a new destination with a quieter cruising experience and would love to maximize your time relaxing, Lan Ha Bay should be on your travel list. I hope this helps. If further information needed, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Best regard, Mary (Ms.)

Dear Ms. Sarah O'Kelly-Lynch, Thank you for your email. My name is Jolie from Halong Bay Tours department and I am very glad to assist you with your trip. Since Mon Cheri Cruise departs at GOT Pier, which is quite near to the airport, we would suggest you take a taxi to the cruise pier for the most convenience. After the cruise trip ends, we can surely arrange for you the Limousine bus back to Hanoi. May I know your travel date and if you prefer 1 night or 2 nights trip in order for me to check the availability accordingly? I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

Asked by Yeng | Mar. 24, 2018 09:18
We plan to book mon cheri cruise on 5/17/2018 for 2 people and one 15 months baby. Is the baby counted as third person? I noticed for some cruises when we entered 2 adults + 1 child it did not show regular room but only family room options, which are almost double the price. Can we book Mon Cheri suite for our family? Also your site showed free round trip shuttle promotion, does it apply to May too or just up to April 30th? Thank you!

Mon Cheri Cruise is an excellent host. They accommodated to our needs well. Food was plentiful and they catered to vegans as well. Kayaking was interesting. The cave on Cat Ba island was small. Overall, it was a worth-trying experience.

Very satisfied with this trip. This was our second time on a cruise. Lan Ha Bay is calm, beautiful and very suitable for a relaxing trip. We prefer to relax on the top deck and enjoy drinks.
